Prospect 5
CompletedOct 23, 2021 – Jan 24, 2022
Organizing institution: Prospect 5 “Yesterday we said tomorrow” at the Newcomb Art Museum, curated by Artistic Directors Naima J. Keith and Diana Nawi, is the fifth iteration of Prospect New Orleans. This citywide contemporary art triennial will feature more than fifty artists in over fifteen venues throughout New Orleans and will include newly commissioned works alongside the work of historically significant artists. P.5 will investigate how history informs the present – particularly in relation to New Orleans, a uniquely American city that embodies so many urgent issues of today, but which remains deeply invested in and subject to its recent and historical past. Taking the city as a mandate, this exhibition will examine history as both document and fiction, exploring the idea that our moment feels both unprecedented and familiar. Curated by Naima J. Keith and Diana Nawi. Learn more at the P5 website
